My family has started a fun tradition of celebrating the 4th at our home in Chicago and the countdown is on! We just got back from Nantucket and had a blast -- more on that soon -- and then this weekend we have Andrew's sisters wedding and then it's off to Chicago for 5 days. It kind of sucks that the 4th is middle of the week but we've decided to take Thursday and Friday and work from home (and hope it's slow) so it kind of works out!

I love the 4th because of the time spent with family but I love the 4th for all the fun fashion! I am (obviously) all about blue and white but when red is thrown in, we are off to the races. Primary colors are my colors and I basically love anything that is patriotic. Especially in the summer it's so easy to wear red white or blue but you put them together and you have yourself a perfect outfit for the 4th!

I bought this top on a whim because I love eyelet things but when I got it in I couldn't believe how well it was made and how nice it looked on! It zips up the back (runs TTS, I'm wearing a 6) and fits perfectly around my waist and larger chest. The shirt comes it at the best place to flatter your figure and the shirt is a little longer so it makes for a really awesome length.

I loved it so much I went back and bought it in white! It's going to be perfect to wear all summer long.
